    摘要: Described are systems for producing differential logic signals. These systems can be adapted for use with different loads by programming one or more programmable elements. One embodiment includes a series of driver stages, the outputs of which are connected to one another. The driver stages turn on successively to provide increasingly powerful differential amplification. This progressive increase in amplification produces a corresponding progressive decrease in output resistance, which reduces the noise associated with signal reflection. The systems can be incorporated into programmable IOBs to enable PLDs to provide differential output signals.

    摘要: A bus interface circuit for a programmable logic device (PLD) including an interface multiplexer connected between two or more external communication circuits and a configuration memory array. The interface multiplexer coordinates communication between a selected one of the external communication circuits and a packet processor. The packet processor interprets command/data information transmitted in a bit stream from the selected external communication circuit. In a default state, the interface multiplexer connects dual-purpose input/output pins of the PLD to the packet processor. In an alternative state, the interface multiplexer connects a JTAG interface circuit to the packet processor to facilitate configuration operations through the JTAG pins of the PLD.

    摘要: A power-on reset circuit responds to a power decrease of very short duration by using a delay circuit having a high threshold inverter which reliably detects a voltage as high as a standard threshold voltage as a low voltage when the power supply voltage again begins to increase. A very low current source provides current for driving the power-on reset circuit only when providing a power-on reset signal and draws no current during normal circuit operation.

    摘要: A flexible architecture for nesting joint test action group (JTAG) test access port (TAP) controllers for FPGA-based embedded system-on-chip (SoC) is provided. Advantageously, a programmable approach permits bits in a selectable bit register (302) to be selected based on the number of JTAG TAPs that will be utilized. The selected bits can be used to vary the apparent length of an instruction register (302). Importantly, the flexible architecture permits access to any combination of a plurality of JTAG TAP controllers in the FPGA-based embedded SoC without the need to rewire any I/O pins of the FPGA and/or embedded IP cores.

    摘要: A system for controlling the impedances of circuits on an integrated circuit chip is provided. At least one circuit is selected to operate as a p-channel reference circuit, and at least one circuit is selected to operate as an n-channel reference circuit. Other circuits are selected to operate as circuits and/or line termination circuits. A digitally controlled impedance (DCI) circuit controls the p-channel reference circuit to determine a desired configuration of p-channel transistors for use in the circuits. The DCI circuit further controls the n-channel reference circuit to determine a desired configuration of n-channel transistors for use in the circuits. The DCI circuit takes into account such factors as resistances of p-channel transistors in the p-channel reference circuit, resistances of n-channel transistors in the n-channel reference circuit, as well as temperature, voltage and process variations. The DCI circuit relays information identifying the desired configurations of the n-channel and p-channel transistors to the circuits. The circuits are then configured in response to this information.

    摘要: Described are a system and method for converting a typical two-level logic signal to a pair of differential logic signals. In accordance with one embodiment, a field programmable gate array (FPGA) is configured to provide a digital signal and its complement on a pair of output terminals. A resistor network connected to these output terminals converts the complementary signals to a pair of differential signals having current and voltage levels within the range established by the LVDS specification. For maximum efficiency, the values of the resistors that make up the resistor network can be selected to match the 100 ohm input resistance exhibited by LVDS receivers.

    摘要: The main rotor control system includes a rise/fall swashplate assembly that is coupled to three triplex actuators. The swashplate assembly is configured to provide full collective and cyclic pitch controls. Each triplex actuator includes three piston/cylinder assemblies in parallel. Selective actuation of each triplex actuator is controlled by a fly-by-wire system in conjunction with three flight control computers and three hydraulic power packs. Integrated three function valves can be associated with an individual manifold for each piston/cylinder assembly of each triplex actuator, the integrated three function valve be configured to insure safe operation of the triplex actuator during a failure of a certain piston/cylinder assembly.
